It is somewhat embarrassing to be this hung up about a player who was acquired as just a contract; a player to be on the roster or even a cap dump. Just an overall feeling of foolishness that we are still thinking about Sean Walker’s ability and role and what he was able to do for the Philadelphia Flyers in the first half of last season, but it was really something.
Maybe it was just him being able to be Drew Doughty’s understudy while in Los Angeles, but Walker truly elevated this entire team when he was on the ice last season.
